The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Ug. From the article:

The investigators' new findings may bolster President Trump in his claims that Minnesota is a "hub of fraudulent money laundering activity" under Gov. Tim Walz, who was the Democrats' vice presidential nominee in last year's presidential election.

Trump has capitalized on the fraud cases to target the Somali diaspora in Minnesota, calling them "garbage" and saying he doesn't want immigrants from the East African country in the U.S.

More than 90% of the people charged in the major fraud cases announced before today were of Somali descent, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for Minnesota.


More ammunition for Trump and friends to attack Walz and all people originating in "sh!t hole countries".

So, how much did Walz know and when did he know it? Or can something this huge have flown below his radar?
